A reminder that Democrats want TSA agents to be paid. We’ve supported targeted funding to keep them on the job. What we won’t do is sign off on a DHS funding bill that lets ICE continue to terrorize our communities. Congressional Republicans are refusing to separate the two for political gain.
Making Medicare Advantage the default option hurts patients and taxpayers, but it will make insurance execs a lot of money. I introduced a bill, the Protecting Medicare Choice Act, which will make this illegal.
Another bad idea straight from Project 2025. Medicare Advantage is private, for-profit insurance that overcharges American taxpayers by billions every year and regularly denies seniors the care they need.
16 years ago today, the Affordable Care Act was signed into law. Like Joe Biden said, it was a big f’ing deal! Tens of millions of Americans received the coverage they needed, and insurers could no longer deny care for pre-existing conditions.
It is deeply shameful that Republicans always find money for wars, but are unable to allocate funds to take care of the American people. Congress should immediately reject this request. CC: @repilhan.bsky.social
Instead of getting us into another quagmire, this money could go towards lowering costs for Americans, including by fully funding the ACA tax credits, feeding hungry kids, & taking care of our veterans.
Recent reporting has shown that this war is already costing American taxpayers between $1 & $2 billion a day and has caused the deaths of 13 servicemembers, nearly 1,500 Iranian civilians, & dozens of civilians throughout the Middle East. Donald Trump owns this war.
It is preposterous for the White House & the Pentagon to think of requesting any defense money from Congress while waging a war we never authorized, let alone $200 billion.
I was honored to secure $1 million for The Center for Black Excellence & Culture to build a brand new facility that opens in just a few months. It was exciting to get a behind the scenes tour from its founder Rev. Dr. Alex Gee before it opens!
